However, I can't upload the package without "QA upload" text and
changes about the patch pointed in d/cahngelog.

You are right but lintian checks if your package is compliant with
Debian Policy (ok, it does not check 100% because it hasn't AI, but is
a parameter used for this in Debian).

Good points - I guess it is not worth making a new package to fix
these items you mention - but the next one I should consider them. See
below for more details

Thanks for your e-mail I will note the points about the changelog for
next time (as policy says best to fix changelog via an additional
entry).

I didn't check the changes to the Standards-Version field as I didn't
feel expert to look at that so I didn't attempt to update that.

So I have started to trawl through the changes via

/usr/share/doc/debian-policy/upgrading-checklist.txt.gz
 (from stretch which is upto 3.9.8.0)

since partimage-0.6.8 is currently as per Standards-Version 3.9.1.
I  found some things:

3.9.3:
 9.1.1
  `/run' is allowed as an exception to the FHS and replaces
  `/var/run'.  `/run/lock' replaces `/var/lock'.  The FHS
  requirements for the older directories apply to these directories
  as well.  Backward compatibility links will be maintained and
  packages need not switch to referencing `/run' directly yet.
  Files in `/run' should be stored in a temporary file system.
...

 9.1.4
  New section spelling out the requirements for packages that use
  files in `/run', `/var/run', or `/var/lock'.  This generalizes
  information previously only in 9.3.2.

partimage-0.6.9/debian/partimage-server.partimaged.init

has PIDFILE=/var/run/partimaged.pid

The above is ok I guess and otherwise I think the policy is good - so
next build I will bump up the Standards-version level as well.

Thanks  again

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

I have some considerations:

1. d/changelog:

- You are doing a QA upload. So, it must be in changelog.

- You renamed the patch 03-ftbfs-zlib.patch to 01-ftbfs-zlib. Please,
point it in changelog.

2. d/control:

- Please, bump Standards-Version to 3.9.8.

Thanks for your work.

Eriberto
